Chemotherapy History: a. A participant may have received adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy in early-stage breast cancer. i. Any participant who received prior adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy are eligible provided the criteria for premenopausal status. b. All chemotherapy-related toxicities must have recovered to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v6.0 ≤Grade 1 before trial participation, except for alopecia, peripheral neuropathy, or paresthesia (≤Grade 2). 7. Concurrent Medications: 1. Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors are permitted if initiated and tolerated without ongoing toxicity CTCAE v6.0 \>Grade 1 for at least 2 weeks before trial enrollment. 2. PIK3CA/AKT inhibitors are permitted if started at least 2 weeks before the trial and tolerated without ongoing toxicity CTCAE v6.0 \>Grade 1. 3. Concomitant use of bisphosphonates is permitted if initiated and tolerated without ongoing toxicity CTCAE v6.0 \>Grade 1 for at least 2 weeks before trial enrollment. 4. Concomitant use of endocrine therapy (eg, aromatase inhibitor, fulvestrant, or other FDA-approved selective estrogen receptor degraders \[SERDs\]) is permitted. 8. Informed consent: Able to understand and willing to provide informed consent and able to comply with the trial procedures and restrictions. 9.

Practicing true abstinence for at least 28 days prior to investigational product (IP) administration until 30 days after the last IP administration and having a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at Day -1, OR 2. Using 2 forms of highly effective nonhormonal contraception, including 1 physical barrier (condom or diaphragm) plus another nonhormonal method (eg, intrauterine device, spermicidals) from Screening or at least 2 weeks prior to IP administration (whichever is earlier) until 30 days after the last IP administration and having a negative serum pregnancy test at Screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at Day -1. 10. Performance Status: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Postmenopausal: Naturally or surgically postmenopausal (regardless of age). 2. Body mass index (BMI): \<18 kg/m\^2 or \>35.0 kg/m\^2. 3. Prior surgical or radiation procedures: History of bilateral oophorectomy or prior radiotherapy to the ovaries. 4. Recent radiotherapy: 1. Radiotherapy for breast cancer within 4 weeks prior to trial enrollment. 2. All radiotherapy-related toxicities (except alopecia) must have recovered to CTCAE v6.0 ≤Grade 1 before trial enrollment. 5. Radiotherapy during trial: Planned radiotherapy during trial period. 6. Selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) use during trial: Participants may not receive tamoxifen or other SERMs during the trial and must discontinue any SERMs prior to enrollment, other endocrine therapies (eg, aromatase inhibitor, fulvestrant, or other FDA-approved SERDs) are allowed. 7.

Participants with asymptomatic or stable/treated brain metastases are eligible to enroll if neurologically stable and are receiving a stable or decreasing corticosteroid dose at the time of enrollment. Participants with discrete pulmonary parenchymal metastases are eligible if respiratory function is not compromised. 11. Hepatic function: 1. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≥2×upper limit of normal (ULN) if no liver metastases, or \>5×ULN with liver metastases. 2.

Cardiac conditions: 1. Corrected QT interval (QTc) using Fridericia's correction (QTcF) \>450 ms at Screening. 2. Uncontrolled or symptomatic heart disease, including: i. New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure. ii. Myocardial infarction within the past 6 months. iii. Unstable angina or significant arrhythmias requiring intervention. c. Documented congenital QT syndrome. 21. Clinically relevant abnormal medical history or abnormal findings on physical examination, vital signs, echocardiogram (ECG), or laboratory tests at Screening that the investigator judges as likely to interfere with the objectives of the trial or the safety of the participant. 22. History of multiple and/or severe allergies to drugs or foods or a history of severe anaphylactic reaction. 23.
